Porvoo
From the collection of Helsinki City Museum
Porvoo is a work by Olga Forslund, held at Helsinki City Museum.
This drawing shows a quiet town by a river, with a wooden bridge leading toward buildings. The houses are simple, with light colors and dark roofs. In the background, a tall church tower and a pyramid-shaped building stand out against a soft blue sky. The bridge’s railing is made of simple wooden slats, and the water below looks calm. The artist used clean lines and muted colors to keep it peaceful. Check out the museum: Museum of Ethnography to see more works like this.
Olga Forslund left a small but vivid slice of early 20th-century life in her pencil drawings.
